I do not subscribe to HBO, so I was amazed my hotel gets so many HBO channels! Anyway, I have no movie guide in my room. I am trying to recall the name a kids’ fantasy movie about a girl who is put under a spell, or the like, so that she MUST do everything she is told…leading to some funny circumstances when idioms are taken literally, too! In the least, does HBO have an online chart of October movies for ALL their channels? Clue me in! Thanks!

P.S. The dinosaurs say hello. And, you should see the wheel prototype! 🙂

Ella Enchanted. Took a wild guess on a vague recollection and Googled. Surprised it paid off! …I am so bad with names! 🙂
